Injuries to the lateral condyle epiphysis of the humerus in children.
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article deals with the mechanism of production and the method of reduction of injuries of the lateral condvlar epiphysis of the humerus. These injuries are usually described as affecting the capitulum, but, as noted by Roberts (1936) and Watson-Jones (1943), the detached fragment consists of the capitular epiphysis and the lateral third of the trochlea with a fragment (common to all epiphysial injuries) of the humeral metaphysis. The line of fract ure is remarkably constant.

Patellar fracture is a relatively uncommon fracture especially the vertical sagittal type. In cases of high energy trauma injury, it is usually associated with fracture of ipsilateral distal femur or proximal tibia. However, the combination of vertical sagittal fracture patella and ipsilateral fracture lateral condyle is very rare. This necessitates judicious diagnosis and appropriate managemen...

Simultaneous combination of fracture of the lateral condyle and postero-medial elbow dislocation is a rare event and limited to few reports or case series in the literature. Rarity of the injury also necessitates judicious diagnosis and appropriate management to ensure optimal functional outcome. Various authors have reported about the condition including the management which mostly includes su...
متن کاملDistal humerus lateral condyle fracture and Monteggia lesion in a 3-year old child: a case report.
We describe a case of a Monteggia fracture dislocation and an ipsilateral lateral humeral condyle fracture in a 3-year-old child. This is a rare combination of injuries with no previously reported cases in the literature. This case emphasises that when a fracture is detected around an elbow there should be a high index of suspicion for other injuries in the region.
